Wolf Creek Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Heber-Kamas Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah, about 9,400 feet up in stands of aspen and fir. It is an extremely rustic site, with vault toilets as the only facility, and visitors should expect to carry their own gear. The forest service warns that the site can close earlier or open later than expected and that its facilities often suffer heavy winter damage. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Moon Lake weather station show July and August highs around 77°F with lows near 49°F, while winter highs stay around 31°F. That station sits well below the campground, so temperatures at Wolf Creek run cooler. Trail Hollow Trail is about 1.2 miles away and Trail Hollow about 2.1 miles. Shady Dell and Cobblerest Campground are both within roughly 8 miles.
